Sourcebook for Sundays, Seasons, and Weekdays: The Almanac for Pastoral Liturgy is the essential and trusted resource to help you prepare the liturgy for all seasons of the liturgical year, each Sunday, solemnity, feast, memorial, optional memorial, and seasonal weekday! If you are a priest or deacon, liturgist or worship team member, religious educator or looking for more information about Catholic liturgy, this publication will be an invaluable tool!
This year’s book is for Year B, Weekday Year I. It begins with November 28, 2011 the First Sunday of Advent, and continues through November 26, 2012, the last day of Ordinary Time.
Sourcebook for Sundays, Seasons, and Weekdays is organized in two user-friendly sections: The Season and The Calendar. General material relevant to the whole period is included in the Season section. You will learn more about the meaning of the season, the saints who are honored, the liturgical books, the liturgical environment, the liturgical music, and how to bring the liturgy into your homes! Specific to this year are notes on the Gospel according to Matthew, the primary evangelist for Year A. The Calendar section is a straightforward almanac, and the only resource, which consistently provides pastoral reflections and ideas for each day of the liturgical year. You can look up any day of the liturgical year and find basic liturgical information as well as ideas for how to celebrate the liturgy.
There are multiple authors for this year’s edition of Sourcebook. Each author brings a wealth of pastoral experience and liturgical expertise to their sections. Well-known authors such as: Corinna Laughlin (primary author for the rites and scripture commentaries), Jill Maria Murdy (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, Liturgical Music), Therese Brown (school liturgy), Mary Patricia Storms (liturgical environment), Michael R. Prendergast (liturgical music). And introducing: Ann E. Degenhard (The Parish and the Home) & Robert C. Rabe (saints/sanctoral cycle)
